Brighton Bitch Memoirs

I need a crossover between #thegildedage and Deadwood.

AND MY AXE. Her getting snubbed was enraging. #tonyawards

They better not forget to include the Kennedy Center in the in memoriam. #TonyAwards #Tonys2025

Well, Cole Escola winning a Tony and thanking someone from Grindr just vaulted into my ten favorite moments in Tony history. Actually, in history.

A wax cylinder of George M. Cohan singing Yankee Doodle Dandy sounds better than this - what the hell is going on with the sound on the broadcast of the #tonyawards ???

Katie Holmes looks like she paired a hospital gown with a sparkly skirt. #tonyfashion

Why is Cynthia Erivo dressed like Annie? #tonys

An old-fashioned wax cylinder bearing a sepia-toned photograph of John Darnielle on the outer case.

What follows is a thread of absurd anachronistic @themountaingoats.bsky.social media.

Context: @mxlabradorite.bsky.social posts a mid-90s TMG show to the group chat. @offbalance.bsky.social replies “is it on a wax cylinder?” Naturally I responded thus:

It is 1995. I am at a concert in a band Tshirt and jeans.
It is 2005. I am at a concert in a band Tshirt and jeans.
It is 2015. I am at a concert in a band Tshirt and jeans.
It is 2025. I am at a concert in a band Tshirt and jeans.

Cousin Richie from The Bear with his face pressed against the window into the restaurant. The text says: "YO COUSIN WAKE THE FUCK UP WE GOT A POPE AND HE'S FROM FUCKING CHICAGO"

Words by the exquisite and talented @offbalance.bsky.social, but I HAD to once she said it...

In addition to his hateful views, dude reviewed his own book as an "invaluable resource."

@sailorboyj.bsky.social and I are watching a TV show and when one character suggested to another that they have a "surprise" date in a wooded area. Me: OH HELL NO. That's how you end up on Dateline!

Watching for the first time and cam confirm both.

A blessed release day to all of my fellow Little Monsters. Mother has returned when we need her the most. #ladygaga #mayhem

Dear DoctorWho :

Keep Steven Moffat away from the show.

The Christmas special was awful…. it made no sense, and took really recent events far too lightly.

Ncuti Gatwa was great… but ultimately relying only on his charm as opposed to coherent writing is not the basis for good tv.

That's why Bragg is trying to throw a whole library at him. I think they're hoping he'll plead to a lesser charge and get actual jail time. Because if this goes to trial? It's not going well for the prosecution.

And then Franklin would ask when you're going to the titty bar

25 Days of Stupid Christmas Memes

Day 4

#25DaysOfStupidChristmasMemes

So in preparation for the new Dylan biopic I plan to re-watch Walk Hard, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, and Weird. Quotes from all three were running through my head during the trailer.

Just found out that the upcoming Lunar New Year will be the year of the snake🐍. Fellow #swifties, do you think that's when we're finally going to get #Reputation #TaylorsVersion?

Here's one example: if you think it's good to have new treatments for cancer, and you are competent enough to understand that the profit motive will never fund basic research into these areas, then you know why RFK Jr. gutting HHS is going to devastate health progress for the entire world.

To reiterate

I think it's possible to hold two conflicting opinions at the same time.

On the one hand, I believe in almost total artistic freedom.

On the other, I think those responsible for Baby Shark belong in the Hague.

"Opting out of full-time paid jobs to do care work is not “anti-capitalist”; it’s exactly capitalist. Because capitalism rests on the unpaid labor of women. Framing that work as sacred or anti-capitalist doesn’t change that. Different lipstick, same pig."

Me trying to read the in memoriam names behind the orchestra and interpretive dancers. #oscars

Ever since someone called Billie Eilish and her brother Goth Carpenters I can't unsee it and it makes me laugh every time. #oscars

🎶And it's beginning to snow🎶

Anderson Cooper Couldn't Stop Uncontrollably Laughing at John Mayer During CNN's NYE Show Truly this is a delight.

This why television exists

FRANK LANGELLA, HELLO!!

Russell T Davies really said "Fuck TERFs," and that's wonderful.
